Botox Injections – Wrinkle Smoothing & Expression Line Relaxation
Botox (botulinum toxin type A) is a highly effective, FDA-approved injectable treatment that temporarily relaxes specific facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles — such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases. By reducing muscle activity, Botox softens existing lines and prevents new ones from forming, creating a smoother, more refreshed look.
Ideal for those wanting a subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation without surgery or downtime, Botox is one of the most popular and trusted aesthetic treatments worldwide.
